City Songs with Blue

Fri Feb 22, 2013 9:54 pm

The bits of my house that get painted are blue and I have always worn a mainly blue scarf (well at least until the mid 70's) and I have always supported the Bluebirds.
I had a think tonight about the songs/chants of the terraces but couldn't think of many which contained the word 'blue.'

From 60's on here's a few

Aye aye aye aye aye fred davis.........
Bless em all .......
Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly...
When I was young....
We are the Grangend boys...
Tip toe through the Grangend
AG AGR AGRO AGRO
One two three four five if you want to stay alive....
It's a long way to Cardiff General
Kayarrdifff.....
We're the Grangend.....
Hello, Hello....
Come on City
Come on Cardiff
Cardiff....Cardiff....(even from the Grandstand and Canton at times)
You'll never walk alone...(seriously)
If you want a lot of fighting in your football....
And it's Cardiff City,Cardiff City FC.......

The only songs/chants that I can think of that refer to blue are
Bluebirds....(1980's on?)
We are the boys in the blue and white...(1970's)
Blue army (1980's on)

The thought of our crowd singing(assuming that our crowd could ever sing or chant anything these days) 'we are the boys in the red and black' makes me cringe. I know times move on and blatant agro is a bit tricky but when you look at it there are plenty of the older songs/chants that could still be used today whatever the colours worn by the team on the pitch.

Whose that team they call Cardiff
Whose that team we all adore
They re are the boys in blue and white
and we are f*cking dynamite
because Cardiff are the graetest football team

Is that right or is the beer and old age creeping in ?

And I can’t do this by myself
All of these problems, they’re all in your head
And I can’t be somebody else
VT took something perfect
And painted it red
